Pilot Powers In Sydney

Postby MrStompy » Thu Oct 12, 2006 12:15 pm

im sure this topic has been covered before but i couldnt find anything in my meager search of past postings...

im going put a set of Pilot powers on my bike (prob this weekend).
i can remove the wheels no worries and just take them in- thus avoiding the bike fitting charge.

Has anyone gotten an awesome price on powers from somewhere in Sydney that they want to tell me about?
At this stage im thinking i will just go into MCS in parramatta as they are reasonably close.

I will call Narrellan kawasaki as well first incase he is crazily cheap but its a little far away unfortunately.

Anyway i just wanted to see if anyone here had some info

thanks Jayc

Narellan do Bridgestone's and Shinko's Jase. He got me a Power rear once direct from Gardners and it cost me $280 fitted.

MAW at Castle Hil might be able to do something.

thanks guys
both those prices are cheaper than MCS.
MCS want $289 rear and $190 front.

they have to order in the front though.

i think i will give SPM a call.

I cant wait to try out these Pilot Powers ive heard so much about :D

Just tell them what price you want to pay and see how they do?

I went in and told them I had $270 bucks for the rear... they uhm'd and ahh'd for a while until I was walking out of the shop....

I got Pilot Powers from Brendan at SPM last saturday ($450.00 fitted). Great service, cheap price and top workshop :D . All I had to do was turn up with the bike and they did the rest. Now lets see if the pilots outlast the Dunlop 208's (3000km and the canvas was showing on the rear.) So far they feel like a much better tyre and I got a 190 rear to get it turning a bit easier :wink: .
